SaaS ERP platform for waste management operations and route optimization
WasteHero builds enterprise software for waste operators and municipalities, with a Python/Node.js backend (PostgreSQL, Redis, Celery) and React frontend. The tech stack and project list reveal a company scaling an ERP platform across municipal deployments while tackling data integration complexity—legacy codebase indexing and ETL pipelines for complex datasets are active priorities. Engineering headcount and a stated challenge around low velocity suggest the company is working through technical debt from multi-customer ERP implementations.
